When it comes to fuelling your runs, energy gels are the go-to for most long distance runners. But there is SO much choice out there. The Running Channel’s teamed up with running journalist and extreme runner Kieran Alger, aka Man V Miles, to test the best on the market right now. Anna is our guinea pig and will be undergoing the ultimate blind taste test, as well as discussing the benefits of each of the products featured.
Whether you’re new to fuelling your long-distance runs, have a sensitive stomach and are looking for something new to try or perhaps you’re interested in the world of natural gels and ingredients, we’ve got you covered
